Our Gratitude and Our Shame in God’s Country
Every few weeks, on my podcast, posted right here every Wednesday, I do a segment called “That 70s Kid.” Therein I give myself free rein to wax nostalgic about those halcyon days. I might talk about the great cereals we … Continue reading

When You Love the CEO But Hate Middle Management
It’s not often that a bumper sticker sticks with me. Rarer still is when I not only remember one, but actually like it. Still more rare is when one that I like comes from a Christian perspective. My boss is … Continue reading

Victory By Death: The Way of the Cross, The Way of the Way
The Devil delights in false dichotomies. When he persuades us that our choices are between this foolishness and that weakness — heads, he wins; tails, the kingdom loses. When we are lukewarm in our commitment, when we think the kingdom … Continue reading
